Hi,all:
Today I tried installating few machines with kickstart file through NFS. But somehow it didn't worked and got error message "Unable to download the kickstart file".
I have tested the nfs share mounting from other server and it worked fine. But somehow while trying to install http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/#a fresh machine with ks file through NFS is giving this error message.
Please look in to this and let me know if there is something I need to configure before starting the installation.
Thanks in advance ~

Make sure that NFS server access control is not blocking access to file. See /etc/exports for more info.

Well , I tried to use the following command to check that NFS mounted directory in the server: root@xxx ~: showmount -e localhost /instsvr *
Then I could also mount that share directory in the server .
So I thought the NFS Server access control is no problem . isn't it ?

hard to say, since NFS is a bit problematic.
how about trying kickstart file over http ?

How are you calling the kick start file, could it be a DNS issue?
